Rapid? boot

[Lucky#Slevin]

I reinstalled just about everything this morning and thought: Hey let's try what rapid boot can do for you.

So I timed the start-up w/o rapid boot installed:

30 seconds till welcome screen
43 seconds till desktop

And the timings with rapid boot installed:

30 seconds till welcome screen
43 seconds till desktop

Now, is it just me, or is there no difference between these timings? A friend said that maybe the fact that I already have a SSD installed means that rapid boot can't accelerate anything. What do you think?
How does this tool even work? I mean: what does it do to achieve a faster boot process?

Who of you has rapid boot installed AND noticed an improvement?

What laptop and OS are you using? I'm getting 10 seconds till welcome screen and 15 seconds till desktop on my X220 with a slow Intel SSD and stock Windows 7 x64 Pro (with Lenovo EE 2.0), your timings seem to be too high.

I am using the X220 tablet and Win 7 x64 Pro (not stock and w/o Lenovo EE 2.0).
I will try to get EE, and report back.

Isn't rapidboot only available on EE2.0?

Well, I know that I could download it from Lenovo and install it on my vanilla Windows 7 installation, though - as said above - it didn't improve anything.
Now I have the original OS configured by Lenovo installed on my SSD, but the start-up time is still about 30 seconds.
My Control Panel says that rapid boot is installed.

Where is my problem?
